Ingredients

  • 4 cups chicken breast, cooked and chopped
  • 4-5 slices thick-cut bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 1 cup diced celery
  • 4 thinly sliced green onions
  • 1/3 cup Hiland Dairy Sour Cream
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons dried chives
  • 1 teaspoon dried dill
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Directions

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the sour cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice, chives, dill, parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt.
  • Add the chicken, bacon, celery, and green onions to the bowl. Stir until everything is evenly coated in the dressing. Taste and add more salt if needed.
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or 1-2 hours if you have time) before serving. This gives the dried herbs time to soften and the flavors time to come together.
